Questions, answered
Getting started, pricing and the fair print, in plain words.
Does BeNotely cover everything Kitomba does?+
It covers what an appointment business runs on day to day: a calendar built for your trade, online bookings, deposits and no-show protection, a customer list with notes and smart segments, email marketing, a full website, and an AI booking assistant. Kitomba has been at this longer and goes deeper in some back-office areas, so the fairest test is to set BeNotely up during your 30 days and see whether it covers how you actually work.
What does BeNotely cost?+
There's a real free plan for one person: online bookings, your website and the AI assistant, no card required. Paid plans start at $29 AUD a month for one person taking bookings and from $69 for a team, GST included. Every new account starts with 30 days of everything switched on.
Can I bring my existing customers across?+
Yes. Export your list from your current system (Fresha, Timely, Square and most others do it in one click) or paste it straight from a spreadsheet into Customers → Import. The columns are recognised for you, duplicates are skipped, and a last-visit column comes across too. Anyone not on the list takes seconds to add, and a record creates itself the first time someone books. Nothing is ever locked in: your customer list exports whenever you want it.
Can I try BeNotely before I decide?+
Yes, and without a card. Every new account starts with 30 days of everything switched on, so you can set it up properly, take real bookings and see how it fits your business before paying anything. There are no lock-in contracts and you can cancel any time. Every new account is also offered a free 15-minute setup call if you'd like a hand.
Does BeNotely charge commission on my bookings?+
No. BeNotely takes 0% of your bookings on every plan. You pay a flat subscription, or nothing at all on the free plan. When a customer pays a deposit, the standard card-processing fee applies - the same as any card payment anywhere - and the rest lands in your own account. BeNotely adds nothing on top and earns from the subscription, not from a cut of your work.
Is BeNotely built for Australia?+
Yes. It's built in Melbourne, and it shows in the details: pricing in Australian dollars with GST included, text messages to Australian mobiles, support from people who know the local market, and your money paid into your own Australian bank account.
